episode 4: Kilometre 0 – The transfer market
In this episode of Kilometre 0 we look at the way the transfer market works in professional cycling.
Teams and riders can announce transfers from August 1 onwards but other negotiations can go on much later. On the eve of the Vuelta a España Richie Porte confirmed he'd be moving from BMC Racing to Trek-Segafredo. But what effect does the transfer window have on the teams as they try to compete in the final grand tour of the season.
